Chapter 213
Lucas's face was overcast almost instantly after hearing Nangong Che's words.
So it was not that Nora couldn't have baby at all, it was that she's been secretly given birth control pills.
As for the person who gave the pills, he didn't have to guess who it was.
He could think of no one but his mother.
When he thought of this, his face was more somber.
In particular, his mother made trouble out of Nora's inability to conceive for several times, maybe it was all in her calculation.
Evelyn didn't know that Lucas already knew about the soup.
Probably because she slept a lot in the daytime, she couldn't sleep when she tossed and turned in the bed, and she wanted to eat fruit.
She went to the kitchen to make a plate of fruit and ate some. Then she thought that Lucas took care of her during the day. He was working overtime in the study, so she wanted to bring him some fruit. When she came to the study, she knocked on the door and went in.
"Are you finished?"Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
She asked so naturally that she didn't even notice.
Lucas looked at her and pressed his thin lips tightly. He shook his head and said, "Not yet."
The voice was so cold that Evelyn found out something was wrong in a flash.
"What's the matter? You don't look very well. What happened?"
She subconsciously concerned and asked.
Lucas looked at her worried eyes, and there was a bit of complexity in his eyes.
"Not a big deal, some company problems."
When Evelyn heard the perfunctory answer, she knew that he didn't want to say it. She didn't ask too much and put the fruit tray on the table.
"Then I won't disturb you. Remember to eat these fruits. Don't work too late. And have a rest earlier."
Lucas nodded.
Then Evelyn turned and left.
...
The next day, she felt better and got up with Lucas to go to the company.
She did looked better than yesterday and Lucas didn't stop her.
After all, Evelyn was the director of the company and also the part-time chief designer. She had a lot to manage.
"If you have any discomfort. Call me and don't try to be brave."
Lucas sent Evelyn to the branch office, watching her get out of the car and reminding her.
Evelyn listened to his concern, and her heart was as sweet as drinking honey water.
"I see."
She nodded in response. Lucas didn't say anything anymore and turned to the head office.
Evelyn watched his car disappear on the road and turned into the company.
After two days' absence, the accumulated work was so heavy that Evelyn worked like a gyroscope all morning, turning all the time without a moment's leisure.
Fortunately, in the middle of the day, most of the things were handled, which allowed her to take a breath.
As soon as she relaxed, Evelyn felt something was wrong.
She looked at Bessy beside her and asked, "Bessy, don't you think there is something missing today?"
Bessy was confused by her.
"Miss Davis, what do you think is missing?"
Evelyn looked at her and hesitated, "Don't you think this morning is too quiet?"
Bessy blinked and recalled the scene in the morning and the previous pictures. She laughed and said: "Miss Davis, are you addicted to be finding fault by Miss Bush? She didn't come today. While You are not used to it. " When Evelyn heard her joke, she realized that what she thought was missing was Dale's faultfinding.
Just as she wanted to ask how Dale was doing these two days, she heard Bessy brought it up on her own initiative.
"After the last time, Miss Bush seems to have put away her sharpness and seldom come to find us fault."
Evelyn raised her eyebrows and blinked in surprise.
Although she didn't believe that she could get rid of her temper, it was good to be quiet.
Otherwise, she would often make trouble, and the whole company would not have peace.
In this way, Evelyn left the matter behind and went back to work.
As it said before, the design of new brands has been completed, and at present the focus was on the location of physical stores.
Evelyn found several good addresses, and that afternoon he took Dale to check them.
"Designer Bush, I think this address is the best one we choose. The north and South have high flow of customer, and the light is abundant, and the vision is good. You can see it at a glance."
After visiting several sites, Evelyn finally got a favorite. She asked Dale, "What do you think?"
Because of what happened before, Dale was a little uncomfortable with Evelyn, but it was related to her work at this time. She didn't mix her personal resentment and carefully looked at the store.
It can be said that even she, a picky person, couldn't find any problems with the store.
As the woman said, this store had superior conditions. If the physical store was opened here, it would be a bright spot.
"I have no problem with it."
She looked around and agreed.
Evelyn was stunned by the neat answer.
However, thinking of what Bessy said to her in the morning, she quickly regained her mind. Then she contacted the person in charge of the shopping mall, and finalized the lease contract with the fastest speed. After that, she planned to take the contract back to the relevant departments of the company for approval.
Along the way, she looked at the contract carefully several times and was relieved to make sure that there were no problems or loopholes.
Dale took all her actions to heart.
Although there were many things she did not like about this woman, but in her work attitude she had to say that she was more sober and calmer than she was.
Evelyn didn't know that her image in Dale's mind was slowly changing. She went back to the company to hand in all the materials that should be handed in, and then went back to the office to continue to deal with things. In the evening, she went back from work and Lucas was back.
After a simple wash, they sat down in the dining room.
"Cindy, where's my tonic soup today?"
Evelyn asked, finding there was no soup on her side.
But before Cindy could answer, Lucas took the lead in saying, "I told someone to remove it. You'll be well here. Nangong Che said it was not suitable to be to nourishing."
Evelyn was stunned. At first, she thought Lucas was aware of the problem of the soup. But when she heard the words he said later, the idea was dismissed.
...
At the same time, in Hawk family.
Amelia stayed in the empty new house for two days. She was very unhappy.
Especially when she thought of Lucas and Nora that bitch out there having fun, she was going to lose her mind.
Maybe Nora that bitch was unpredictably proud.
The more she thought about it, the more reluctant she was, but she couldn't do anything to Lucas.
Just when she didn't know what to do, the little maid who had been loyal to her came to her.
"Miss Morgan, although young master didn't come back, we can cheat him back with the Battered-Body Trick."
Calculation flashed through Amelia's eyes when she heard her idea.
At ten o'clock that night, the little maid suddenly stumbled to the main house. "Madam, bad news. Miss Morgan fell down and she is crying for stomachache."
